I live in Bristow and have been pleasantly surprised at the amount of local businesses having "Spirit nights". Local dining places give a percentage of a night's profits to particular local schools. For instance, Five Guys is having a spirit night tomorrow and will donate 20% to my son's ES. My son made honor roll last semester and we got a $25 gift certificate to Glory Days. Five Below does this routinely. I think this is really nice win-win for schools and businesses.

Wondered if other communities were doing the same thing.

Oh, yes. It's being going on in Woodbridge for a very long time.

Five Guys, Cici's Pizza, Chili's, Glory Days, and too many more to name have all been involved.

Yes, here in Vienna it's called "Dining for Dollars." It's very popular.
